I loved seeing your photos. I have stayed along the coast for a few hurricanes in my lifetime and was witness to nature's fury and beauty at the same time. I am glad Earl didn't make landfall and that he is now history. Thanks for sharing your photos to beach lovers that do not live near the beach.MY best- Diane

Your pictures tell a story. You are so right, the ocean can be so unforgiving at times. I imagine the birds are exhausted from fighting the wind and rain. I'm glad the storm didn't amount to anything stronger. Wonderful pictures.

Blogger seems to be having fits this morning so hope I haven't commented twice. Love the shots especially the curling wave. I have weathered several hurricanes at the outer banks and also fled from one....that was fun!...NOT! I think I got my feather wreath at a local garden center called the "The Great Big Greenhouse".

Your pictures of the ocean waves are amazing. Although I much prefer a bright blue sky over a grey dismal sky, there's something appealing about the dark sky in your pictures... like you said, it's mesmerizing.

You took some amazing photos. I love the ocean even when it looks angry. It always reminds me of the vastness and power of God. I am an ocean lover!!! I just read your comment on my Fall post on neutrals. I just gathered images from all over not just one house but I agree it would be a lovely place to stay. Some fun ideas for Fall I thought,have a good weekend, Kathysue

Beautiful photos! I love the beach when a major storm is offshore...WAY off shore. The surf is always spectacular. And after the storm passes, I love to explore the sand sculpture on the dunes and to see what treasures the surf has yielded.Hopefully all the storms/hurricanes this season will just skirt the coastlines and stay out to sea.Jane (artfully graced)
